Synopsis: Enter the Fat Dragon (1978)

After Bruce Lee died in 1973, several Lee imitators surfaced, including Bruce Li, Bruce Lea, and Dragon Lee.

After Bruce Lee died in 1973, several Lee imitators surfaced, including Bruce Li, Bruce Lea, and Dragon Lee. Hung's second directorial effort parodies these cheap copies and their films (BRUCE LI THE INVINCIBLE; CLONES OF BRUCE LEE). Starring as Lung, a Lee-infatuated swine-herder who practices kung fu on his unfortunate pigs, Hung travels to Hong Kong and fights with toughs threatening his uncle's food stand. Hung, who worked with Bruce Lee on ENTER THE DRAGON, faithfully captures Lee's mannerisms, including his nose swipes and blood-curdling exhalations. Filled with jiggles and giggles, ENTER THE FAT DRAGON easily fits within the genre of kung fu comedy that Hung and his friend Jackie Chan pioneered. However, going far beyond fat-man-ineptly-performing-martial-arts comedy (Chris Farley in BEVERLY HILLS NINJA, for instance), Hung demonstrates his impressive athletic gifts, showing that a large body is no impediment to physical grace.

  • Overall:

    kung fu king

    By Wendy  Aug 5, 2000

    If you are a real hardcore kung fu movies lover then this movie is the ultimate!!! This movie is a real must for every kung fu fan who is especially into the kung fu area of the seventies. The movie is of an extreme low budget just like all seventie...s kung fu movies but the kung fu skills from Sammo make the movie just like Bruce Lee did. And speaking of Bruce Lee this movie might be called a parodie on Bruce Lee but in my opinion it is a tribute to Bruce instead of the other real stupid Bruce Lee imitators of the late seventies.Sammo plays here a pig farmer who is a great fan of Bruce. His fighting impersinations are incredible. If you look carefully and you know the styles of Wing Chun and Jeet Kune do you can really see the high level of skill of Sammo. The fights are a precedent for the more faster and blitsing fighting styles of SAmmo Jacky and Biao in the later early eighties kung fu movies.(wheels on meals etc.)If you really love Wing CHun then this movie is it.!!!
